This was also caused by a leftover scripts/mod/devicetable-offsets.h in the source tree. Andreas' fix works (sort of, read on), but only if you run "make mrproper" _after_ applying it. Still, if you have other leftovers from a previous build in the source tree, you get: Using /scratch/geert/linux/linux-next as source for kernel /scratch/geert/linux/linux-next is not clean, please run 'make mrproper' in the '/scratch/geert/linux/linux-next' directory. However, you don't get that message if there's still a stale scripts/mod/devicetable-offsets.h in the source tree. Any idea how to fix that?
